"Search for the Emperor's Treasure" was a game in DRAGON Magazine, Issue 51 (July, 1981). I LOVED this game as a kid and would think about it from time to time, but I could never remember the game's name nor the issue, and searching for it was always fruitless. Then I stumbled on a guy's avatar on BGG when perusing the FANG thread and a memory tumbled down Tetris-like into making me recognize it was from that game.
Anyway...any of you old dudes (like me) remember this game? The rules are all right there, and the markers/map are all at the end of the PDF. Enjoy.
you're old, dude.
it was an excellent game and IIRC, collected in a box set of about 6 Tom Wham games that were released in the mid- or late-80s
Looks like the type of game I could get into, if it were more extensive.
I've eyed similar Print & Play stuff, such as those from Berserker Games like Heroes Of Argos (https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/156250/heroes-argos-game-heroic-adventure-ancient-greece). Haven't been all that inclined to produce the components, especially with the lacking artwork.
I played this game often with my dad back in middle school. Great memories.
#64 has Championship Sumo Wrestling. Just a single page of rules and fun as hell. We used to play this while waiting for everyone on game night back in the day.
Good times.
That map is actually quite nice.
